Just the fact my front bar has so many stone chips, some doors have minor dints and the front left still has a slight ding from the crash haha. All good though, they are only noticeable when you look out for them. Just annoying once you know they're their you constantly see them haha.
One day when i start earning some decent money i might invest in making it perfect again

But what's the point in having everything perfect if it could happen again?
If someone could run a trolley in the front of it?

Pending on what finish you want bud, if you want it to be perfect by all means go for it, personally I'd just spray it
